Chic succulents are still on trend along the Front Range — and for good reasons. These architectural plants are practically perfect. “Succulents make sense for the Front Range because they are extremely xeric in nature, which suits our semi-arid climate. They are easy to grow, maintain, and propagate, making them a great one-time investment that can fill your gardens for years to come,” said Sandy Haynes, the owner of Stonewolf Gardens. Haynes plants succulents in her award-winning landscape designs, where the low-water, low-maintenance wonders fare well in beds and borders.
